DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
When we’d advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Widespread crazing
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- Access to the area
- The colour and finish to match
- The material and finish
- How much damage there is
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send photos for a quote
You can take the pictures on your phone. Just make sure we can see:
- A photo taken from further back
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Details of any past repairs
- The material, if you know it
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote.
The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Get a quote
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Advice
What your basin is made of matters
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.
Repairing versus replacing in Hunmanby
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. Repairing it avoids those problems. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Get chips repaired early
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
Hunmanby: your questions answered
What does sink repair cost?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.
What information do you need?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
What happens after I send pictures?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Surface cracks can normally be repaired. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
